Drove the scenic route to our destination and hoped to run across a local gem and this was it!!!! Nic size east to get to and came because big the reviews. I e hit it at 3:45 so not ideal time for a place but this place nailed it. The BEST corn tortilla I have ever had. Lived the three tacos I got, barbacoa, carnitas and shrimp. Loved them all! Get the green salsa too. Others at the table got tacos, and the pollo and chorizo w rice. That was great also read more

What can I say? The asada street tacos are to die for. The chips and salsa are always delicious. The staff is so welcoming and kind. The place is usually pretty steady with significant rush for Sunday lunch. The food is always so consistent and amazing. read more

Great food and service. They waiters greet everyone by name and know the regulars orders by heart. Tacos are the best in town!

We have eaten here several times and love to come back. The nachos and salsa are good, the food is hot,fresh and tasty. Tonight I had the chicken burrito platter and my wife had chicken fajitas. My burrito was stuffed, beans and rice hot. My wife's fajitas were sizzling and tasty. The staff is prompt and friendly. The restaurant is clean and well operated. Our favorite local Mexican restaurant. read more

I didn't care for the food. Very bland and tasteless in my opinion. Wouldn't return here.

Wonderful food. Very friendly service. Will definitely be back. I had fajitas and husband had the beef tacos. Food was fresh. First time I'd seen Pepsi from Mexico. My husband drank two. America really needs to consider going back to sugar. read more

The best authentic street tacos in town I love this place. They just need to sell beer now and they would be perfect.

Came to town on a golf trip. Gato's was delicious. Food was excellent (Molajete for the win). Service was top notch. Price was superior! Highly Recommend read more

Happened to stumble on this place on accident and it luckily was a Tuesday so they had buy 3 get 1 free tacos. Normally they're 3 for $7 so it was such a steal! They were super yummy will definitely be going back! read more

good tacos, local family owned joint. just did a refresh inside. When I'm in town, I eat there about 1 time a week.

Ordered a shrimp fajita plate and as I was eating, I noticed several pieces of beef in it. When I asked the waiter why there was beef in my dish, he started to awkwardly giggle. I then told him that I can only eat seafood and he said that everything grilled is cooked on the same grill in the same spot. I told him I was vegetarian/pescatarian and that I can not eat beef due to religious reasons. He then told me that he also didn't eat meat and we awkwardly stared at each other while he continued to giggle (I was so confused). A few minutes later, my friend found a hair in her salsa. I would stay away from this place unless you want to find random stuff in your food or hair in your salsa read more

Really enjoyed my experience here! I loved my food, the service was fast and friendly. The atmosphere is interesting, I am excited to see how it grows! But it's amazing so far. I had the shrimp quesadilla and my mom had the chicken chimichanga. Both super yummy! Will be returning! read more

I had heard rave reviews of Gato's and I finally got to try it out at their truck and storefront eating area in Tazewell. I was very impressed. Definitely authentic and the prices are reasonable. If you want to try the real deal, check out Gato's. read more

OK this is a place that I found about 2 years ago. At that time, it was strictly a food truck operation and it was absolutely mind-blowingly wonderful. Since then, they have pretty much abandoned their food truck and moved into a brick and mortar location. It is a very small restaurant but that is part of the charm and character of it. This is the type of place that will ruin you because you will always be using their food as a measuring stick to see if other Mexican food measure up and most don't. This place is that good. Tacos, or should I say authentic tacos, are by far my favorite food group and throughout all my travels, I always try to find good tacos to eat. So far, I've never found any, anywhere that measure up to Gatos Tacos. They have effectively ruined me. Their prices are also awesome. On Tuesdays, they have Taco Tuesday where you can get 4 tacos for $6. My favorite thing to order is a pork taco, steak taco, el pastor taco, and a chorizo taco with a special burrito with both the green and red sauces. I've never ordered anything that wasn't A+. It's definitely worth the drive to New Tazewell. This is the type of place that is addictive and will give you a craving that only their food can appease. It's also the kind of place where the owners will get to know you and after a few visits will know your name and your order before you have to tell them... read more
